Abstract

This presentation showed work we have done on using Brain Computer Interfaces to detect scientific curiosity in images. The equipment used by the group from EPFL Lausanne was a full 32-node EEG while the CLARITY group from DCU used a home-built 4-channel EEG analyser with total cost less than €1,000. Results indicate that the P300 ERP is a positive indicator of curiosity, especially in experts.
